Hi Nils,
Well, here in the hinterlands of North Carolina the concept of a
"wine
menu" has not yet emerged. The closest is one restaurant that has a
huge "by the glass" offering.
The closest thing we have here from time to time is where a
restaurant
might put on a "wine dinner" where, generally they are pushing the
wines of a given distributor as opposed to trulying working to create
the right match between wine and food.
I guess it boils down to having some knowledge of the establishment
to
know if they are truly working on creative wine/food matching or,
they
are simply doing a gimic to push a distributor's wines or simply
trying something new for the heck of it.
I thought that The Fearrington House in Chapel Hill had a wine menu.
